hi Guys,
Until now I have always found a solution to my issues - thanks to all of you - but this time no success.
The problem: I have 2 data sets which I want to join based on a common service order number. On the left side BEFORE joining I have G/L codes in the following format:
AFTER joining together, all fields in the same column comes up as null:
I have tried almost every variation of string types but the problem still exists.
Am I overlooking something basic here?
I have also tried dividing into 3 columns this field using text to column tool and tried to join that way,but again no success.
I would really appreciate your help on this.
Thanks,
MK

Hi @EtamSoko I think you first issue is the Null values in the GL accounts are being joined with other nulls so I would filter out the Null first before the join and that will help troubleshoot the issue with your join.
Hi @EtamSoko ,
Only complementing the @JosephSerpis response, you are seeing only null values in your column because you are looking for a sample of your data only, if you insert a browse after your join output, you will possibly see the values joined.
Best,

@EtamSoko As @JosephSerpis suggested, I would use the filter tool to filter out the nulls. You can also use the browse tool after the join to take a look at the full dataset. You will see the records that joined below the null values.
Let us know if this worked or not.
thanks for all of you. it works now 🙂
